SOCIAL ANXIETY



 INTRODUCTION

Hey, guys. I have to tell you about this amazing roller coaster I went on yesterday. It's like the scariest fastest thing ever, and I rode it 12 times, it was so--It's on my shoulder, isn't it? Most people feel shy, nervous, or anxious at some point in their lives when meeting new people, trying out for something new, answering a question in class, or even talking to someone they like.

SOCIAL ANXIETY

When you're shy, nervous, or anxious, it's totally normal to feel butterflies in your stomach, a racing heart, or sweaty palms. But for some people, this anxiety and stress feel overwhelming and can make these situations feel scary. So scary that this person may feel uncomfortable participating in everyday social situations. It's often called social anxiety or social phobia.

 People who have social anxiety often still have friends and like to be around other people. But things, like large groups or brand-new situations, can trigger feelings of anxiety that might feel so intense that they are paralyzing. The person might not want to engage in certain activities or experiences as a result. For some people, their feelings and reactions might be much more intense than for others. But it's not their fault. They can't just turn off their feelings or get over it. 

 CONCLUSION

Social anxiety is when thoughts and fears are often exaggerated in someone's mind, but there are things people who suffer from social anxiety can do to help manage those feelings. Talking with a trained school counselor, social worker, or psychologist can help a person dealing with social anxiety. Learn more about what brings on their feelings, and how to best manage them so they can enjoy life to the fullest.
